Chapter 2982 Killing Wei Qi, Chinese New Year and Palace Changes [3]
"This servant is here to deliver a message to Miss Xiao." Xu Nuguan took out a plain invitation and handed it to Xiao Xinghua with both hands: "The Queen admires Queen Chu Wen, so on New Year's Day, please invite the fourth-ranked guest from the capital. The families of the above officials entered the palace to pay homage to Queen Chu Wen."
Xiao Xinghua was shocked when she heard this: "Is this what the Queen means?"
Ms. Xus smile did not change, she nodded and said, Of course it is the Queens wish.
Afraid that Xiao Xinghua would refuse, he didn't wait any longer and stood up and said, "The post has been delivered. I'll take my leave first."
She stood up, bowed to Mrs. Xiao and Xiao Xinghua, and left with a few maids.
Mr. Xu, please go slowly. Mrs. Xiao said politely.
After Xiao Xinghua waited for Ms. Xu to go away, she immediately went to close the door, pointed to the post and said: "I went to visit someone's grave on the first day of the new year. It must be Mr. Wei Er's idea to do this." There must be no good intentions, mother, we can't go."
Visit someones grave on New Years Day?
Mrs. Xiao wanted to laugh when she heard this, but she had to lower her face and scolded her daughter: "Sister Hua, don't make mistakes... Since the Queen has sent someone to deliver the post, it proves that this matter must be done, and it must be done better than before." Not doing safety.
Mrs. Xiao looked at Xiao Xinghua and said solemnly: "We must believe in the Queen, she has always protected the female family members."
Xiaoxinghuadao: "Mom, the one whom the Empress trusts the most is Concubine Wang, but the one who came to send the post today is Concubine Xu, a vixen. Maybe the Concubine doesn't know about this!"
Wei Qi is the emperor, and it is very possible that he can do several things in the name of the queen.
And Ms. Xu had flirted with her father several times. This woman must have served Wei Qi a long time ago and would not listen to Queen Wang at all.
Xiao Xinghua came close to Mrs. Xiao's ear again and whispered: "Mom, there are soldiers and horses inside and outside the capital now, and a fight is about to begin. According to the military book, the most likely days for a fight are New Year's Eve and The first two days of the Lunar New Year. Master Wei Er asked all the family members of the fourth-rank officials to enter the palace to worship on the first day of the Lunar New Year. All fools knew that he wanted to use the officials and their families as hostages. That old **** is very bad, mother, we can't go... pretending to be sick Well, my daughter, go ask Madam to get some poison, even if the imperial doctor comes to check, it wont be found, its very safe.
this?
Gu Dewang glanced at her sideways and said, "You look like a girl who wants to trick me into a trap. I won't tell you. I'll go to the Duke of Qin's mansion to see Sister Xiaoyu first."
Hmph, Xiao Xinghua could only shut up and turned to talk to him about personal matters: "The accounts were paid at the end of the year, where is the money you earned?"
The corner of Gu Dewang's mouth twitched: "You want my life before I even get through the door, don't even think about it!"
Silver is his life. If he wants his private money, he would rather castrate himself.
"You are so stingy. Erlang said that if you are too stingy, you will not make a fortune." After Xiao Xinghua said this, she didn't ask about the money again, but Gu Dewang gave her a box of silver notes: "Give it to my dad during the New Year. When mom buys gifts, be generous and dont embarrass our house, Im rich.
Haha, Xiao Xinghua was happy. She immediately took the box and counted the banknotes: "Good guy, it's a total of thirty thousand taels... You, you won't break the law, right? I don't want to be implicated by you and go to jail!"
Gu Dewang gave her a roll of his eyes: "You are the one who broke the law. I am a good and upright young man. I earned this money from doing business with Brother Cheng, Mr.'s family, and the Dou family... Brother Cheng relied on the Lu family to find a way Wood is very valuable. We have made a fortune, and when we build the ship, we can make a lot of money. It is a good business that can be passed down to the family."
After hearing this, Xiao Xinghua was relieved. She was very sensible and did not ask where the wood was. Instead, she counted the banknotes and took a carriage to the Duke of Qin's mansion.
As soon as Xiao Xinghua saw Gu Jinli, she told Gu Jinli about the matter and said worriedly and angrily: "Madam, that old man is so shameless. He clearly wants to kidnap all the officials and family members. If there is really a riot, the minister will, for the sake of his family members, We can only support him, but what can we do?"
He then said, "Madam, please give me some powerful poison. I took it with my mother and pretended to be sick."
As for Sister-in-law Xiao... she is pregnant. Pregnant women are not allowed to visit graves. Moreover, after Mrs. Xiao fell ill, she, the daughter-in-law, had reason to stay at home to take care of her illness.
Gu Dewang said: "You think others are stupid. If you do it so obviously, you are not doing it to yourself."
Xiao Xinghua said angrily: "I'm stupid, but I just want to protect myself... take a woman as a hostage, but the old man can think of it, I will curse his country..."
"Auntie, if you continue to talk so openly, you will be finished sooner or later." Gu Dewang interrupted Xiao Xinghua and said to Gu Jinli: "Sister Xiaoyu, have you received the post? I think entering the palace is also a good strategy. .
Gu Jinli nodded: "I got it... I also think it might be safer to enter the palace."
Xiao Xinghua was shocked when she heard this: "Madam, why do you think so? The danger of entering the palace is obvious, aren't you afraid?"
